Can anyone recommend a high performance engine oil which readily available and sutable for a highly modifed daily driver on the Gold Coast, In the UK I was using Valvoline VR1 20W/50 but can't get that over here ?????

any thoughts ?

I use and recommend ACE Oil, designed in Australia for air cooled engines.

Sometimes we have to go out of our way for our special machinery......ACE is not readily available, but nor is Brad Penn or some of the other specialist oils.

Buy a carton of 3x5litre and you'll have enough for a year or two depending on your mileage.

Sorry no website.
Attached is a document with details of the oil.

I do stock it and would be happy to send you some.
$44 / 5 litre inc GST plus postage.
